NASA on Thursday confirmed that a loud boom heard over McAllen, Texas was the sound of a meteoroid entering the Earth's atmosphere, and breaking up as it scattered over the area. The rock was 2ft in diameter and weighed 1,000lbs, NASA said before it broke into small pieces and scattered across the area. No damage was reported, but terrified locals assumed it was an earthquake and shared stories on social media of their homes shaking with the impact. NASA said that anyone who thinks they have found a fragment must contact the Smithsonian. They reassured people that the space rocks posed little threat to the public.

Under attack by transgender radicals from inside and outside the paper, top editors of The New York Times face a problem so difficult, I feel sorry for them. Well, almost.
The hesitation is warranted because the editors have only themselves to blame. After abandoning standards of fairness to push a crazy woke agenda, they are suddenly discovering that appeasing the far left is impossible.
The crash course in common sense comes with the lesson that the more you give the radicals, the more they want. And they don’t ask, they demand and make threats.
If you follow politics, there are probably two people you can’t picture in a room together—California governor Gavin Newsom and former Fox News analyst, and current fiancée to Donald Trump Jr., Kimberly Guilfoyle.
Yet, they were once married: (Tweet) He, the hyper liberal, exquisitely-coiffed smooth talker and she, the brash, heavily made-up TV personality, somehow stayed in matrimonial bliss from 2001 to 2006.
Now, however, they’re going back and forth on the public airwaves, and it got nasty lickety-split, with each accusing the other of changing who they really are.
Guilfoyle was adamant that she’d always been a conservative,
The 1950s “Nation of Immigrants” narrative is more important than Congress’s laws, according to Alexandro Mayorkas, who is President Joe Biden’s pro-migration border chief.
“Our goal is to achieve operational control of the border, to do everything that we can to support our personnel with the resources, the technology, the policies that really advance the security of the border, and do not come at the cost of the values of our country,” Mayorkas said in an interview with CNN’s Chris Wallace, on the cable TV show, Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace.”
Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot urged black voters to help her 'keep the seat' from falling to white or Hispanic challengers, despite an appalling spike in crime.
As Lightfoot seeks a second term in the upcoming February 28 election, some business leaders concerned about the continuing crime wave say they don't think she is up to the task.
In rallies on Saturday, Lightfoot told the South and West side residents who don't support her to not bother voting at all. Chicago's South Side is a historically-black area.
'Any vote coming from the South Side for somebody not named Lightfoot is a vote for Chuy Garcia or Paul Vallas,' Lightfoot said.

A GOP political operative was sentenced to 18 months in prison on Friday for illegally funneling tens of thousands of dollars from a Russian businessman to the Trump campaign in 2016.
Jesse Benton, 45, was convicted in November of six charges related to scheme to connect a Russian businessman with then-GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump. The Russian, millionaire Roman Vasilenko, wanted to take a picture with Trump to post on social media.
“Benton arranged for the Russian national – whose nationality Benton concealed from the campaign and the candidate – to attend a campaign fundraising event and to take a picture with the candidate,”
Fast food lovers are deeply divided over Chick-fil-A's launch of a new cauliflower sandwich, with some welcoming the addition, while others reacted in horror to the 77-year-old chain 'going woke'.
The Atlanta, Georgia-based family firm announced on February 13 that they were trialling the new plant-based sandwich in three locations: Denver, Colorado; Charleston, South Carolina, and Greensboro, North Carolina.

HOUSTON — The One Safe Houston violent crime reduction program hosted its latest event today in northeast Harris County.
Editorial note: The above video aired on Feb. 6 when the third gun buyback was announced.

Former President Donald Trump said he will not call Ron DeSantis by the nickname 'Meatball Ron,' but then repeated a different slur for his potential GOP challenger.
In a Truth Social post on Saturday morning, Trump called the Florida governor 'Ron DeSanctimonious' in the same post that he claimed it would be 'inappropriate' to use the word 'meatball' as a moniker - which has been reported to be a jab at DeSantis' Italian heritage.
'I will never call Ron DeSanctimonious 'Meatball' Ron, as the Fake News is insisting I will,' he wrote on conservative social media site.
Jimmy Carter, the longest living president in U.S history, has decided to live out his final days in hospice care in his Georgia home with wife Rosalynn by his side rather than seek more medical treatment.
The 98-year-old's charity The Carter Center announced on Twitter on Saturday that after a series of short hospital stays, the former peanut farmer has 'decided to spend his remaining time at home with his family and receive hospice care instead of additional medical intervention.'
It said the Democrat, who has dedicated his life to public service and charity, has the full support of his medical team and family
A former White House doctor criticized Joe Biden's latest physical report as 'alarming,' saying it makes no mention of his 'declining' mental health.
US Rep. Ronny Jackson, who served the Trump and Obama administrations, said Biden's latest health report was nothing but a 'cover-up' after the president's physical concluded that he was a 'healthy' and 'vigorous' 80-year-old who is fit for office.
'The majority of Americans can see that Biden's mental health is in total decline, yet there is no transparency from the White House on what's going on, if anything, to address this issue and his inability to do his job,'
Police in Georgia say that nine children were hurt in a Friday night gas station shooting with the youngest victim being just 5-years-old.
Police officers in Columbus, Georgia were dispatched to the Shell gas station on Warm Springs Road on Friday night around 10 p.m. Responding officers reported a large group of people with nine shooting victims, police said in a press conference on Saturday.
"Based on our preliminary investigation, we learned that an altercation took place at a party that was nearby," Columbus Police Chief Freddie Blackmon said, adding that all the victims were under the age of 18.
For now, America is safe. Joe Biden (call sign: Lying Dog-Faced Pony Soldier) will sweep the skies of America and Canada and he’ll shoot down whatever is floating. Joe admitted that NORAD didn’t know what they shot down over Alaska. It could have been Carl, Doug, and Russell. It could have been a 5-cent Ralph’s Grocery Bag, a Hefty garbage bag, a guy tied to a chair under party balloons, a used car dealership balloon man, or a $12 hobby balloon. Whatever it was we are no longer at DEFCOM 1.
For now.

Social Security and Medicare are on an “unsustainable course” and will run out of funds by 2037. That’s the conclusion reached by the General Accountability Office (GAO) and the Social Security Administration.There is no saving these programs without massive changes. And demagoguing the issue, as Joe Biden and the Democrats are doing, only delays the day of reckoning. To pretend these programs don’t need intervention now — right now — is to play with dynamite. The sooner we can get started, the less pain will be inflicted on senior citizens.
Pain there will be. In order to put these programs on the path to long-term viability, it will take political courage
Experts are calling for an investigation into a Stacey Abrams-founded charity over a large financial discrepancy.
The New Georgia Project, a minority-focused democracy advocacy group founded in 2013, was run by Nse Ufot, hand-picked by Abrams, until she was fired in October. The group filed its 2021 Form 990 financial disclosure three months later, when the form was two months overdue, an investigation by the Washington Free Beacon found. The group reported a $533,846 consulting payment and $67,500 grant to an obscure charity called the Black Male Initiative, run by Ufot's brother. However, the group claims it never received any such payment.
Paige Spiranac has jumped to the defense of Tiger Woods amid the backlash he has received for a tampon prank between him and golf partner Justin Thomas.
Woods handed his friend and rival Thomas a tampon during the first round of the Genesis Invitational, shortly after out-driving him on the tee, with cameras - unfortunately for Woods - capturing the moment.
Spiranac, a former college golfer turned model and influencer, was quick to react to the situation and said: 'If anyone tries to cancel Tiger over this we riot. It's funny. 'It's interesting to see women outraged by Tiger slipping JT a tampon after out driving him but those same women

Kamala Harris was forced to fly a military cargo plane home to the nation’s capital Saturday after Air Force Two broke down on the tarmac in Munich, Germany.

Keith Olbermann is a world-class jerk.
We all know that, and usually, jerks don’t merit much attention. Contempt? Obviously. But spending a lot of time worrying about a jerk being a jerk is time you could have spent enjoying something else.
But Olbermann is a hero to many, and one of the more influential political figures in the country. Sometimes an A-lister, usually a B-lister, Olbermann is just the sort of guy who can express the id of the Left and get rewarded for it by his followers, if not his colleagues who famously hate him. [Tweet] Olbermann’s “feisty” personality has cost him professionally–not because his followers

America has been drifting toward a level of corruption incompatible with a free society and a free-market economy.

Exclusive: The White House explained why it turned down Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine's request for disaster relief this week in the aftermath of a derailment of a train hauling toxic chemicals.
A Biden administration official told Fox News Digital that it has provided extensive assistance to surrounding communities following the chemical release earlier this month in eastern Ohio. However, the official said the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the agency that usually provides relief to communities hit by hurricanes and other natural disasters, isn't best equipped to support the state's current needs.
